There’s an unmistakable calming quality to the sculptures of Creek artist Retha Walden Gambaro. A selection of her subtle, serene bronze work is on display throughout Heard Museum’s Nichols Sculpture Garden in the ongoing exhibition “Attitudes of Prayer.” Acceptance shows a woman bowing her head, hair falling to partially obscure her face, while Courage finds a woman facing oncoming winds, head high, with her hair and dress blown back by a breeze. Harvest meditates on care and providing. All command quietude and reflection.
